Spec Kitty

Quickstart: reproduce & verify #4642

Reproduce (RED, before fix)

# Instance 1 — next on corrupt meta.json
printf '{ this is not valid json\n' > kitty-specs/<slug>/meta.json
spec-kitty next --mission <slug>            # today: uncaught MissionMetaReadError traceback

# Instance 2 — decision cmds on corrupt index.json
printf '{bad json\n' > kitty-specs/<slug>/decisions/index.json
spec-kitty agent decision verify --mission <slug>   # today: raw JSONDecodeError
printf 'ok\xd0\xff'  > kitty-specs/<slug>/decisions/index.json
spec-kitty agent decision verify --mission <slug>   # today: raw UnicodeDecodeError

Verify (GREEN, after fix) — for each corruption class × entry point

• exit code == 1
• no Traceback (most recent call last) in output
• message names the corrupt file + run: spec-kitty doctor
• with --json: error payload parses as JSON
